||
| − | In order to make a page, you will need to be logged in with your [http://forum.tenebraemush.net forum] ID and password. |
||
| − | + | =Step Two= |
|
| + | Add your character's name to [[http://tenebraemush.net/index.php?title=Character_Pages&action=edit|Character Pages]] like this: <nowiki>[[My Character]]</nowiki>. |
||
| − | To make a character page, you will first make a link to the page. This is the way wikis work--it prevents "lost" or unlinked pages. What this means is that the first thing we will do is make a link on [[Character Pages]]. |
||
| + | =Step Three= |
||
| − | # If you are logged in, you will see an '''edit''' button on [[Character Pages]]. Click on the '''edit''' button. You can click the '''edit''' button at the top, or the one that's nearest the letter associated with your character's name (such as A for Agril). Doing so will take you to the wiki page editor. |
||
| + | Copy-paste the below template: |
||
| − | # Once there, type in your character's name like this: [[<nowiki>My Character's Name</nowiki>]]. Be sure to type the brackets! |
||
| − | # Now, save and exit the editor. |
||
| + | <code> |
||
| − | ==Step Three: Create the Page== |
||
| + | [[image:mycharacter.jpg]] |
||
| − | Now [[Character Pages]] will have your character's name in it as a red link. |
||
| + | ==About My Character== |
||
| − | # Click on that red ink. This creates the page for your character. |
||
| − | # Edit! You can put anything on this page that you wish, so long as it's related to your character. You may even upload an image (so long is it is below 50k), share part of their backstory, and so forth. Inappropriate content will be removed or deleted. See [[Help:Editing|Wiki Help]] if you'd some help with formatting. |
||
| − | # Before exiting the editor, be sure and include <nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category: Player<nowiki>]]</nowiki> at the bottom of your page. Alternately, you can use the Add Categories dropdown that will show up when you're in editing mode. This keeps the page editable. If you forget, don't worry too much--just page staff, and we'll fix it. |
